Website Traffic
TipRanks’ Website Traffic Tool, which uses data from SEMrush Holdings (NYSE: SEMR), the world’s biggest website usage monitoring service, offers insight into ContextLogic’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
We could notice a website traffic downtrend on the website traffic tool. In 4Q21, there was a 15.91% decrease in traffic to the overall ContextLogic website from total estimated visits, on a global basis. This, in turn, indicates the company might report disappointing quarterly top-line results as a whole.
